no way the rear of the cars are completely different and thats what i dont like about the r33. but dont get me wrong lots of ppl love them and i can see why just not my cup of tea. my next door neighbour has 1 and loves it to bits but if i couldnt afford an r34 (and actually wanted a skyline) i would but r32

mate they are not completely different. They essentially hold the same style with the r34 being much more sqaure...now the FTO and the R33 backas are "completely different"

I agree they are not the same but they are not "completely different"

personally i reckon each series of skyline looks pretty different.. i like 32s personally 33s and 34s are too bulky for my liking

ok I now have a new tune and a new powerFC...could only run the car at 1bar as the clutch started to slip...made about 260rwkw...with no slipping..

new clutch on its way...will be over 300 soon!! PowerFC is cool...so much infoo.

Good stuff Chris

Once you got that clutch sorted, you need to take it to the drag strip and see what it can do for 0-100 and 1/4 miles

is there any dedicated logo for r32?
or is it just the nissan logo for skylines?

Nacho · Post by **Nacho** » Sat Jan 20, 2007 11:41 pm

Well you should notice the S logo on the front of the Skyline and they also wear the GT badge. If you're lucky enough you'll wear the GT badge with the R on it as well. Unless you're on of those tools who just rebadges cars to make it look better!

Or one of those tools who removes the badges to not show that they only really have an S pack or an RX or RS.

Not really talking about any cars in particular there...

Joel his asking R32, and your description is just a general Sky's badging, its the same since R31-R34

That's what I said right?

lots of variations but generally the GTSTs have an S badge on the bonnet or grille.

GTRs usually (except the 32) run a GTR front badge all run the rear from 32 - 34.

GTT is the 34 version of a GTST.
